were only 33 days left on the Countdown to Spring. It is drizzly and foggy here this morning and the temp is holding steady right now at 36 degrees.
As I am writing my blog I often look at a word I have written and wonder if I have used it in the right context. The red squiggly lines underneath a word on live writer let me know if it is misspelled but not if it is used in the right context. One of my duties at my last job at the AFB was to proof and correct officer performance reports, also to make note if the words were used in the right context. I spent many a time running up 3 flights of stairs to the general’s office at the end of the day to confer with his secretary over the use or misuse of a word. Looking back I can now honestly say that was my least favorite job I have had in all of my lifetime. This was before the days of computers that corrected words for you. No whiteout was allowed. If you had to correct a word hopefully you could get it just right on your typewriter and lift it off and redo it. Easier said then done. Now I don’t give a tiddleypoop whether a word is used in the right context or not. My blog, my words!
I have managed to get my place cleaned and dusted this week including the bathroom which I hate to clean.
I need to close for now. It will soon be time to head off for my doctor visit. Update on that tomorrow.
Stay safe and be happy!!
